Pluck Free Action

The cliff hunter pteranodon attempts to fling its prey of a cliff or into some other hazardous situation

Frequency once per round

Trigger The pteranodon's last action this turn was a successful beak Strike. The pteranodon can use this ability mid-Swoop


Effect The pteranodon attempts to fling the struck creature into harm's way. The pteranodon makes an athletics check against the target's Fortitude DC.

Success The target creature is flung 15 feet in a direction of the pteranodon's choosing and potentially falls or takes damage accordingly. The creature cannot use the Grab an Edge reaction.

Failure The pteranodon fails to move the target creature.

Critical Failure As failure, but the pteranodon's clumsy movement leaves it open to attack. The pteranodon's turn ends, and it becomes off-guard until the beginning of its next turn.

Swoop Two Actions

The pteranodon Flies up to its Speed and makes one beak Strike at any point during that movement.


Pteranodons are quick and agile reptiles with 20-foot wingspans that enable them to hover on wind currents for hours. These creatures have long beaks and equally long crests that protrude from the backs of their heads.


Pterosaurs are primitive flying creatures. While many are smaller than a human, the two presented below are quite a bit larger. Each of these creatures could pose a serious threat to a person. These flying reptiles can be found in a wide selection of regions, but they tend to soar above warm or temperate climates.
